We’ll plan on photographing till Noon and have lunch as a group. Then, you are officially on your own. Some may choose to stay, others will want to continue exploring.
While tripods are allowed, you are encouraged to “pack light.” One lens should suffice. Wear comfortable clothes, good walking shoes, and sunscreen.
